Child Protection

The Safety of our Students is paramount

All of the young people in our care are particularly vulnerable and therefore need a high level of child protection. Inaura School has a comprehensive Child Protection Policy based on government guidance as laid out in circular 04217-2006 "Safeguarding Children and Safer Recruitment in Education".

This ensures that

• All staff and volunteers have been subject to an enhanced criminal records check.
• Staff are trained in Child Protection Procedures.
• Students are able to discuss any issues concerning them with a trusted adult in school.
• Telephone numbers of Child Protection organisations are posted in the school.

Students may contact their social worker or other agency on request. We encourage other agencies to be involved in ensuring the student makes good social and personal progress as well as academic progress.
The school curriculum aims to develop the self-confidence and skills of the pupils so that they can speak out against any abuse to themselves or others.
